I am a beginner to woodwork, the main test I have with this bundle ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt is that I think that its hard to settle on a choice of the plan and outline to use as there are a large portion of them there. Nonetheless, I like the simple stride to step directions laid out there.
Personally, i think i would have filled up the tesselation pattern with a gold color, and seeing the final result it would have gone great with the handles on the drawers.
i would of had no pattern and just left the top as that gorgeous piece of wood.. the pattern ruined it. but everybody hs their own taste and Johnny is a great woodworker! :)
Mechanical engineer here. The people who complain about you "just hitting a button" have no idea what goes into making the code for the CNC or the other countless steps you do. Great vid, hope to see more from you
Training helps a great deal. I came at CNC programming from the opposite route, going through a trade school program. As such, the focus was on taking the completed designs, and how to program your tool paths. So to me, that end of it is actually the easy stuff, whereas the design end is where I struggle.
I was hired at 17 by a sign manufacturing company and then assigned as the CNC/Plotter operator because I was very skilled in computer programming and I quickly figured the software. No one else in the company (~40 people) knew how to operate it except the owner.
Welder here. The people that think CNC is difficult can't really produce anything. Anyone can put in the time to learn CNC. I was thrown on Water jets, laser, plasma, CNC mills and CNC lathes. Programming was simple. My knowledge of metallurgy in welding made it easy. Engineers are supposedly people that build things based upon scientific principles. I call BS on that. Most engineers I've worked with from aerospace to automotive don't build anything. They push buttons and get paid to make things more complex than they have to be.
25 years ago I was using a CNC from Gerber Scientific in the signage industry. You imported your design into the CNC software, told it what size tool you were using and how deep you wanted to go and it calculated everything. It even did auto-nesting of all your different pieces to be cut out. This was on Windows 3.1 - how has using a CNC gone backwards where it's so much work to set up the path??
I'm a retired cabinetmaker and there is little or nothing that is made without pushing buttons, machines are the an investment needed for any joinery company if they want profit and remain in business. At one time the biggest outlay was the cost of labour, now it's materials so errors must be minimised and materials not wasted. You have skills, that can't be disputed, the balance needed includes vision of design, anyone can copy a bench or make pallet wood garden seats, the skills required when starting from an idea and ending up with a beautiful piece of furniture are far more than most people can imagine and not everyone has the skills for this kind of work.
I will say, building this for your daughter and her loving is a great thing to see. But I did LOVE all the dad jokes and made me laugh a few times over. So I hit the like button and subscribed too.
An excellent job. Love the CNC work, forget the 'knockers', "jealousy is a curse". The best judgement of the piece was the brilliant step of bringing in your daughter for the final reveal, her reaction said it all. Love the tent spray booth too. Don from South Aust.
most of the people that say he has no skill simply have no idea what they're talking about. firstly, apart from the cnc machine, assembling products to a great quality is a skill in itself. and is something you learn over time, ive been a cabinet maker for nearly 7 years, i have a lot to learn and improve on, but im good at what i do, through my experiences, assembling and finishing products needs a lot of practice. you can make something that has bespoke and flawless pieces look off or even ugly if not fitted right, so the fact that he can do it to a good level says something, this is an observation i have picked up from watching him build, stuff he probably doesnt even know he's doing as they have become muscle memory or second nature secondly, i recently had a chance to use a fiend's cnc router, and the fact that he said "hah go on, make something" to me after i thought it didnt look difficult, and that i just sat there looking at the screen not knowing what to do, kinda tells you there is a skill level to this. if you have to look a someone for guidance that tells you that theres something to learn.
"That was Easy" is what people think about CNC. They don't understand the hours of designing and trial & error that comes before you figure out how to work the machine. Great job on the design and execution, looks great!
Yep, I went to a cnc class and after about two hours of going over all steps to get things right, I was like...um I'll just do this by hand...it'll be easier.
comparatively, CNC is easy though. Think about the alternative; having to do that design completely by hand. The CNC is faster, easier, more precise, and less stressful. I’m not saying that makes him any less talented, I’m just saying that people’s perception of it being easy isn’t entirely wrong. Just a little wrong.
That and wood moves… Especially the slab. If the thru holes are even just a few thou oversized, then is a huge help in the ability for the slab to move a bit without throwing the whole piece out of whack.
I think the tesselation wouldve looked better if there was more of a gradient rather than single pieces that become a whole pattern all of a sudden. Great desk !
I’d buy that in a heartbeat! I know any one of my daughters would love to have that! Nothing easy about what you do man. People don’t understand that things change so much and even the variables change so much that you’re constantly learning and having to educate yourself.
Well done jonny! I’m new to the channel but Your daughter has an amazing father I bet she is really proud! I grew up without one but it really makes me happy when I see fathers like you do stuff for there children. Also your work is amazing time to watch more
Man, the day I used a CNC...I understood the work that goes into it. As a mechanical engineer I already knew it, but after using CNC my respect for those who work on it increased. Also, that's only one part of this project. Imagine the skill required for the rest. I can't even imagine it.
as a woodworker whom has dabbled in the cnc world, it definitely takes a different type of skill/talent to make builds. infinitely scalable creativity since you aren't limited by the tools. With that said, it would show even more skill from a strictly woodworking perspective if you could do all of that by hand. I definitely don't hold that against you and the project looks awesome!
18:24 "That Whas Easy" and very nice Desk 🙂 would love to see this as a bigger table (conference table) or an dinner table with engraved dish / cutlery 🙂
Nice work on the desk. Black walnut and maple is by far my favorite two wood combo for things. I really like the look of the patten highlighted with white epoxy. Gets something interesting on the top, while still letting the natural beauty of the wood grain shine.
Jonny, can't believe the haters out here. How many daughters in America can say their Dad "made them ah desk", I imagine the number wood be very-very-very, small. Especially one this beautiful, looks like art !! Great job Jonny !!! 👍👍👍👍👍
12:02 is exactly the face I did when it is finished…. This is a beauty of a workspace! Really nice work with the patterns, color and different wood! Like this really!👍🏻
This was so good! I laughed when you just pushed buttons on a bunch of different things. I can “just hit buttons” too, but I DO NOT have the skill to create something as beautiful and creative and elegant as the desk you created for your daughter. I saw you on a collab with another RUclipsr and forgot to subscribe then. Not making that mistake again! This was a treat to watch and a perfect break. Now back to work for me.🌸
@@VictorPoulin dude I may have a million too many question so I’ll try and not throw too many at a time but it’s great to be here and thanks for the response, I’m a woodworking enthusiast still discovering quite a bit, can’t wait to dive in to the channel
You had me until I saw the ridiculous face mask cover shield that's hooked up to a hose going to your back. Meanwhile, your saw is sucking everything (95%) of the dust away. Not a hater.. .just stupid to see people work like they've never worked before, same people who take sledgehammer to cabinets because they saw a DYI special and thought, "I can do that...."
I work with CnC programming everyday and let me just say, people will use one machine for 25 years and still run a program slowly the first time they use it to be sure there isn't a random "aand the drillbit is halfway through the piece before starting rotation" moment, the amount of knowledge that goes into just getting the pieces to look clean and nice is insane
One of the most enjoyable builds I've seen. Love the special touch since it was for a family member. Adding Chloe was a magnificent touch! Wish I had this idea when my children went to college! Awesome job!
Around 40 yrs. ago my mother asked me to make her a desk. So of course I did. Behind one of the drawers, I put a secret section. After both my parents pasted, I took that drawer out (whitch was soaped, wood on wood and still slid like greased lightening, to my great pride) and expected to find treasure or a note, but it was EMPTY? Oh well. My little sister now has the desk, though don't know it it will stay together getting it into her place, it's big and almost was recked getting it out of the house and into storage.They didn't want to take the back off, that held everything together. The part that sat on the top was about as big as the desk in this video with built in light and electic outlets, etc. I'm living in a RV, so I couldn't take it. My mother got ALOT of use out of it and that's what counts.
Gorgeous job Jonny! Most definitely an heirloom piece. A fantastic combination of design, craftsmanship and technology. Beautifully done. Thanks for the tip on the stucco tape. And of course, with a CNC, that was easy!
Honestly I kind of don't understand veneers. Like if you're working with a wood that's expensive and you want to show the wood veneers would completely hide that wouldn't it? I mean it would make sense if you're using really cheap wood and slapping on the veneer to make it look better. But putting veneer on beautiful wood doesn't make sense to me.
That was easy...for you! I like the idea with the "spray booth" tent, fixes the over spray problem while keeping shop dust off of what you just sprayed. My dad was a carpenter, he did a lot of inlay pattern work, but made it look so easy that I feel people underappreciated the work. He was just happy to do it for people though!
cool build, i love the spacious workshop with all the toys, definitely jealous. had to comment on the best thing i learned from this at 16:27 using a tent for a spray booth and protective shield during drying! thats brilliant!
Saying you have no skills is like saying a chef has no skills because he uses a food processor and a stand mixer. I think you have mad skills. Don't let those idiots bring you down.
That was awesome. I mean "easy". I really like the pattern on the top and the contrast of the dark walnut and the maple. I hope she'll enjoy this desk for a long time
I’ll definitely buy that desk- great project well executed with your details. Your daughter is proud and that’s what really matters not the Jealous viewers
That one earned you the subscription. Well done, flawless executed and a nice clean style. Liked that very much. Keep going. (Edit: "That was easy", for the sake of completeness)
My neighbor though that it was relatively simple for me to run the cnc plasma table I built. I had explained some of what goes into the designs and cad/cam work. It wasn't until he saw all the details in person (while I was cutting a part and changing cut parameters) that he realized how complex it can be. I used and grew my skill to build and learn the cnc plasma table and continue to improve my skill with cutting different materials and thicknesses while trying to get better efficiency and quality. CNC capabilities improved my skill level as a fabricator and welder. A CNC machine isn't all that different from a power saw vs. hand saw or router vs. planes, rasps, and sandpaper. It is a more efficient tool that still requires skill to use and master. Some people cheat with a straight edge to rip plywood for sheeting a building, but I can usually freehand +/- 1/16" with my milwaukee cordless circular saw. Most elementary school kids probably draw better than I do and I suck at free handing a plasma torch or router. CNC allows me to use my other skills of learning, building, computer work, and attention to detail to make the machine do what my hands and brain can't. Working smarter and using technology beats working harder or not being able to build to my potential if I didn't use CNC. It also makes it faster which matters when you make part or all of your living working with your hands.
Awesome desk for your daughter... she will treasure that forever! Don't worry about what your critics have to say. You are an extremely talented man who has the good sense, and intelligence, to understand and make use of modern technology... and you are extremely funny. Much love from Cape Town and a new subscriber.
Don’t listen to others when they say stuff at that the true value is your product and what you learned along the way as well as knowing how much work you put into it. Good job and keep building love it dude
I don’t know who’s telling you that you’re not a woodworker or you’re not talented. You’re crazy talented. You’re an artist. Beauty and art come in all forms. If you don’t do what “he” does and he doesn’t do what you do, who cares the eye is in the beholder. There’s no right or wrong. You’re not claiming to be someone else. Your you. Your art is you. And thousands love and appreciate your talent.
That was easy! For real, I absolutely loved this video. You always do incredible work, but the feeling when you get to make something for someone you love is the best. She is going to love it!
"That was Easy" Love the Walnut top, beautiful wood. Nice desk. People who are good at what they do make things look easy. Some people then think that its easy to do, not fully understanding your skill and experience.
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the finished product. It looks so awesome! Your daughter is so lucky to have a dad that can make furniture like this! You won me over. I subscribing to your channel! Nice work!
You are an amazing craftsman! I love all of the kitchen cabinets in your home. She will keep that forever and she will probably hand it down to her children to use, you just created an heirloom.
Beautiful work...a little detail: personally I don't like the white filled crack, at the site of the walnut top...it's also the first thing you daughter looked at 17:17 when you revealed the desk. It's better the same darker color as the top I think
That is a very cool gift for your daughter, the fact dad made it will be all the more cherished. Outstanding talents and step by step directions. Thank you
smallest desk ever seen. ahahahahahahah man i just don't like it... narrow as well as short. from a very long and beautiful piece of wood you made that junk.
Anybody who says CNC work isn't woodworking is very..um....misguided? Like you were supposed to carve that by hand?? :-) Woodworkers buy CNC machines. People don't buy CNC so they can learn woodworking.
If "just pushing buttons" to make furniture is really as easy and low-skill as people make it out to be, how about they go make their own pieces of functional art instead of bothering you about it💀 Beautiful piece!
For anyone complaining about the methods you use to get the results, it's not lack of skill, it's using the tools available to you. Everything you do, you still have to know HOW to do it, but using machines to make it easier is just smart. If you could take a planer back to the mid-1800s, does anyone really believe the artisans of the day would say "no, thanks, I would rather spend 4 days of back-breaking effort hunched over this plank to make it flat..."?
Soooo, an appropriate response to the question… “DAD! Can you build me a desk?!” Could have been… Of Course I can… and I will gladly do so if it will help improve your grammar! Sorry… could not resist the temptation. :-)
Buying a desk would have taken 1 hour and cheaper. I'm a welder. I rarely make things for myself because it is not cost effective. If I need a small jet engine, yes I'd build that myself because the ones you buy are cheaply made and cost $5000. If I made that myself I'd save money and increase quality. But welding a desk... Even if I got all the materials for free, my time would be wasted.
Love the desk, just don't understand why people make desks so short. If it did not have drawers it would be fine, but with them, it narrows the space youi can slide in under it. But the look and style is pretty awesome. Nice work.
Two things, one, your daughter is very pretty. Two, your kitchen is a very weird shape. Is your house a weird shape or something? I've never seen a kitchen like that.
Epoxy ... you carpenter, craftsman and modder really love this polymer stuff, right? *Epoxy resin is harmful to the environment for several reasons,* *which roughly results from the following points:* - Manufacturing and raw materials - Chemical properties - lack of recycling possibility* _*The reason for this is that when the resin hardens, it undergoes a chemical reaction that cannot be reversed._ I found two environmentally friendly alternatives to epoxy resin: 1. EcoPoxy 2. Entropy Resin ... maybe you find some more. As an alternative to *wood glue*, I should also mention *animal glue*. *Animal glue* is a carpenter's glue that has been used for centuries and is made from bones. The glue broths are cleaned, evaporated and dried, resulting in a solid jelly form. This "Bone" glue is completely harmless and environmentally friendly.
The final piece was stellar. Yet, because I am such a visual observer, I thought a more gradual separation of the design would be less be less abrupt, and harmonious. However, I tend to fill up my space. Do NOT listen to us!!! I love your stuff. To thine own self BE TRUE!!! You never disappoint.
Lol, im eating the same two "heat it up" dinner dishes every day of the year. Monthly food budget about 100-120 $ . So what is worse about eating diversed ? high prices ! :) Sorry i just need the "give me food" feeling to not be present in my stomac and im good . I dont really care about special flavors, or anything . Just make me not be hungry and i couldn care less. Plus after eating like this for many years. Actualy makes my stomac upset if i break my food pattern, and eat diffirently suddenly. Edit: Also im danish, 100-120 is basicly nothing in our economy. I was spending 500-600 on whatever food i felt like eating. Before i switches to current "system".
I am going to be a bit picky. Stop wasting time with "you're just pushing a button". It's not worth it. Sofa masters are just jealous of the thousands of dollars worth of products that come out of your workshop. Second.......do something with dust collection. Especially on the miter saw. Your wife and kids will need you for a long time, and so will we with your videos. Third....this is more important. I know you are a master at what you do, but still. Stop using the table saw with your flannel shirt unbuttoned. Just a piece of friendly advice. Fourth.....your products are marvelous, as is the presentation. You have a new sub.
To people complaining about the use of a CNC… How about if you built the CNC itself from scratch, like I did? How many of you built the table saw you are using? Of the impact driver? 😂😂😂 A CNC is not just pushing a button. Hours of design goes unrewarded. But, once the design is nailed down, boy oh boy, then you’re cooking with gas!!

My little sister now has the desk, though don't know it it will stay together getting it into her place, it's big and almost was recked getting it out of the house and into storage.They didn't want to take the back off, that held everything together. The part that sat on the top was about as big as the desk in this video with built in light and electic outlets, etc. I'm living in a RV, so I couldn't take it. My mother got ALOT of use out of it and that's what counts.
Gorgeous job Jonny! Most definitely an heirloom piece.
A fantastic combination of design, craftsmanship and technology. Beautifully done.
Thanks for the tip on the stucco tape.
And of course, with a CNC, that was easy!
"good job it looks awesome but obviously that was easy"
Honestly I kind of don't understand veneers. Like if you're working with a wood that's expensive and you want to show the wood veneers would completely hide that wouldn't it? I mean it would make sense if you're using really cheap wood and slapping on the veneer to make it look better. But putting veneer on beautiful wood doesn't make sense to me.
That was easy...for you! I like the idea with the "spray booth" tent, fixes the over spray problem while keeping shop dust off of what you just sprayed. My dad was a carpenter, he did a lot of inlay pattern work, but made it look so easy that I feel people underappreciated the work. He was just happy to do it for people though!
There's always haters. It's my first time watching you and you did an excellent job pressing that buttons 😉
cool build, i love the spacious workshop with all the toys, definitely jealous. had to comment on the best thing i learned from this at 16:27 using a tent for a spray booth and protective shield during drying! thats brilliant!
Saying you have no skills is like saying a chef has no skills because he uses a food processor and a stand mixer. I think you have mad skills. Don't let those idiots bring you down.
That was awesome. I mean "easy".
I really like the pattern on the top and the contrast of the dark walnut and the maple. I hope she'll enjoy this desk for a long time
If doesn't have skills but makes all that cool furniture isn't he better and more impressive than a guy who has skills?
I’ll definitely buy that desk- great project well executed with your details. Your daughter is proud and that’s what really matters not the Jealous viewers
I much rather have the natural wood look than the industrial clean look alot of people use...wood with metal accents just look better to me
That one earned you the subscription. Well done, flawless executed and a nice clean style. Liked that very much. Keep going. (Edit: "That was easy", for the sake of completeness)
My neighbor though that it was relatively simple for me to run the cnc plasma table I built. I had explained some of what goes into the designs and cad/cam work. It wasn't until he saw all the details in person (while I was cutting a part and changing cut parameters) that he realized how complex it can be. I used and grew my skill to build and learn the cnc plasma table and continue to improve my skill with cutting different materials and thicknesses while trying to get better efficiency and quality. CNC capabilities improved my skill level as a fabricator and welder. A CNC machine isn't all that different from a power saw vs. hand saw or router vs. planes, rasps, and sandpaper. It is a more efficient tool that still requires skill to use and master. Some people cheat with a straight edge to rip plywood for sheeting a building, but I can usually freehand +/- 1/16" with my milwaukee cordless circular saw. Most elementary school kids probably draw better than I do and I suck at free handing a plasma torch or router. CNC allows me to use my other skills of learning, building, computer work, and attention to detail to make the machine do what my hands and brain can't. Working smarter and using technology beats working harder or not being able to build to my potential if I didn't use CNC. It also makes it faster which matters when you make part or all of your living working with your hands.
Beautiful work! I'd be happy to build a similar desk using this as inspiration. Thank you for that! "That was easy"
Awesome desk for your daughter... she will treasure that forever! Don't worry about what your critics have to say. You are an extremely talented man who has the good sense, and intelligence, to understand and make use of modern technology... and you are extremely funny. Much love from Cape Town and a new subscriber.
WOW, just WOW. Beautiful. Lots of work but her reaction was priceless. That’s an heirloom she’ll keep for ages.
Tbh I don’t really care if he only pushes buttons at least he’s more enjoyable to listen to than some others out there
THAT WAS NOT EASY. Please buy longer drill bits..
What a great way to treat a family member. Love the shows and all the new designs.
Don’t listen to others when they say stuff at that the true value is your product and what you learned along the way as well as knowing how much work you put into it. Good job and keep building love it dude
That was easy pushing all those buttons... JKD 😉
That was easy! Great job, dad. It’s always fun to do things like this for our kids.
I don’t know who’s telling you that you’re not a woodworker or you’re not talented. You’re crazy talented. You’re an artist. Beauty and art come in all forms. If you don’t do what “he” does and he doesn’t do what you do, who cares the eye is in the beholder. There’s no right or wrong. You’re not claiming to be someone else. Your you. Your art is you. And thousands love and appreciate your talent.
That was easy! For real, I absolutely loved this video. You always do incredible work, but the feeling when you get to make something for someone you love is the best. She is going to love it!
"That was Easy" Love the Walnut top, beautiful wood. Nice desk.
People who are good at what they do make things look easy.
Some people then think that its easy to do, not fully understanding your skill and experience.
My fave part, was just the little plugs popping out and giving a little bounce!
But this is an absolutely gorgeous piece!
THAT WAS EASY very nice build!
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the finished product. It looks so awesome! Your daughter is so lucky to have a dad that can make furniture like this! You won me over. I subscribing to your channel! Nice work!
You are an amazing craftsman! I love all of the kitchen cabinets in your home. She will keep that forever and she will probably hand it down to her children to use, you just created an heirloom.
Beautiful work...a little detail: personally I don't like the white filled crack, at the site of the walnut top...it's also the first thing you daughter looked at 17:17 when you revealed the desk. It's better the same darker color as the top I think
Beautiful desk!! And the best part is made for sincere love to you daughter. A piece that gonna be passed to the next generation for sure.
Juanito, asi se te va en collera.
That is a very cool gift for your daughter, the fact dad made it will be all the more cherished. Outstanding talents and step by step directions. Thank you
It takes lot of talent and incredible amount of work to push the button as beautifully as you did. Also great job on rest of it.
You definitely have your own style in your projects, and it is a good one
I have that same dictionary. Like actually.
He made both the audience and his daughter happy ✨✨✨
smallest desk ever seen. ahahahahahahah man i just don't like it... narrow as well as short. from a very long and beautiful piece of wood you made that junk.
U really don't look that old to have a daughter that big loving seeing u guys getting along
Anybody who says CNC work isn't woodworking is very..um....misguided? Like you were supposed to carve that by hand?? :-) Woodworkers buy CNC machines. People don't buy CNC so they can learn woodworking.
If "just pushing buttons" to make furniture is really as easy and low-skill as people make it out to be, how about they go make their own pieces of functional art instead of bothering you about it💀
Beautiful piece!
For anyone complaining about the methods you use to get the results, it's not lack of skill, it's using the tools available to you. Everything you do, you still have to know HOW to do it, but using machines to make it easier is just smart.
If you could take a planer back to the mid-1800s, does anyone really believe the artisans of the day would say "no, thanks, I would rather spend 4 days of back-breaking effort hunched over this plank to make it flat..."?
Soooo, an appropriate response to the question… “DAD! Can you build me a desk?!”
Could have been…
Of Course I can… and I will gladly do so if it will help improve your grammar!
Sorry… could not resist the temptation. :-)
Buying a desk would have taken 1 hour and cheaper. I'm a welder. I rarely make things for myself because it is not cost effective. If I need a small jet engine, yes I'd build that myself because the ones you buy are cheaply made and cost $5000. If I made that myself I'd save money and increase quality. But welding a desk... Even if I got all the materials for free, my time would be wasted.
Love the desk, just don't understand why people make desks so short. If it did not have drawers it would be fine, but with them, it narrows the space youi can slide in under it.
But the look and style is pretty awesome. Nice work.
Two things, one, your daughter is very pretty. Two, your kitchen is a very weird shape. Is your house a weird shape or something? I've never seen a kitchen like that.
You shouldn't have to address haters and naysayers, but here we are in 2022 and people without skills will badmouth a guy with skills.
Not only is it an amazing build but you had to move the camera for every single shot!
Baltic Birch - mostly comes from Russia and the surrounding area. So, prices are just going up.....
that was not easy Xd

Question how did u get into this line of work
People are treating this guy talentless whenever this takes a lot of patients and time and also this can be very dangerous if you do something wrong
well made, wish i could do something like this, too bad i am not good with building stuff except for desktop computers
Epoxy ... you carpenter, craftsman and modder really love this polymer stuff, right?
*Epoxy resin is harmful to the environment for several reasons,*
*which roughly results from the following points:*
- Manufacturing and raw materials
- Chemical properties
- lack of recycling possibility*
_*The reason for this is that when the resin hardens, it undergoes a chemical reaction that cannot be reversed._
I found two environmentally friendly alternatives to epoxy resin:
1. EcoPoxy
2. Entropy Resin
... maybe you find some more.
As an alternative to *wood glue*, I should also mention *animal glue*.
*Animal glue* is a carpenter's glue that has been used for centuries and is made from bones.
The glue broths are cleaned, evaporated and dried, resulting in a solid jelly form.
This "Bone" glue is completely harmless and environmentally friendly.
No talent? That's ridiculous! Great job I've always said work smarter not harder.
The final piece was stellar. Yet, because I am such a visual observer, I thought a more gradual separation of the design would be less be less abrupt, and harmonious. However, I tend to fill up my space. Do NOT listen to us!!! I love your stuff. To thine own self BE TRUE!!! You never disappoint.
Loving ur vids man....great work
Lol, im eating the same two "heat it up" dinner dishes every day of the year. Monthly food budget about 100-120 $ . So what is worse about eating diversed ? high prices ! :)
Sorry i just need the "give me food" feeling to not be present in my stomac and im good . I dont really care about special flavors, or anything . Just make me not be hungry and i couldn care less. Plus after eating like this for many years. Actualy makes my stomac upset if i break my food pattern, and eat diffirently suddenly.
Edit: Also im danish, 100-120 is basicly nothing in our economy. I was spending 500-600 on whatever food i felt like eating. Before i switches to current "system".
I am going to be a bit picky. Stop wasting time with "you're just pushing a button". It's not worth it. Sofa masters are just jealous of the thousands of dollars worth of products that come out of your workshop.
Second.......do something with dust collection. Especially on the miter saw. Your wife and kids will need you for a long time, and so will we with your videos.
Third....this is more important. I know you are a master at what you do, but still. Stop using the table saw with your flannel shirt unbuttoned. Just a piece of friendly advice.
Fourth.....your products are marvelous, as is the presentation. You have a new sub.
Dude,,,,,
Who cares what TROLLES say ,,,,you is a god!!!!( used small for obvious reasons) all I can say is ASSUME!!!!
To people complaining about the use of a CNC… How about if you built the CNC itself from scratch, like I did? How many of you built the table saw you are using? Of the impact driver? 😂😂😂
A CNC is not just pushing a button. Hours of design goes unrewarded. But, once the design is nailed down, boy oh boy, then you’re cooking with gas!!
Have fun moving that into her 3rd floor apartment 😂 seriously, good work though!!
